Congratulations boys !

Sunday Junior Racing

Junior Racing is starting to become very interesting with tight racing, capsizing and competitive mark roundings although I was told by the on water judge ( Pieter Verstoep ) that some people were not doing there penalty turns for touching marks.

Luka in the Bic has now got a new mainsheet which definitely worked better being smaller than the original so that it runs easier through the blocks.

The Bic Regatta is presently in the official flyer set-up stage with all changes being passed on to the BIC company in France ( yes, France ) for the final product . The club is now seeking people to volunteer for daily rosters over the course of the event and we are also looking for a couple of people to help the committee in organizing the event. If you have a bit of spare time to help us set the structure of the event up just let us know at the club.

We had excellent racing weather on Sunday with consistent winds from the S/E up to 15/17 knots. I believe several of yesterdays competitors are now going to heed my advice on sail selection with a few people overpowered. They should know by now as like most experts I am never, never wrong. OK, maybe occasionally !

Results:

Sailability

Tuesday's are finally going well for our guests from Sailability Gold Coast with good conditions last week and approximately 80 clients for the day.

The sailors have discovered our method of sandbank positions by running into them and then remembering the next time not to go there although some still try their luck, and as we do, and fail again.

Have a good week everyone John Murphy President /Sailing manager P.P.S.C.
